You are indeed right to think this way. When picking out the appropriate leaf springs for your custom built trailer you will want to choose them based on what the actual loaded weight of the trailer will be. Just make sure that the leaf springs have…
Hello Mekiah. So, we actually do not carry an axle that will meet your exact specifications. We do have a 6,000 lb axle that has a 86-1/2" hub face, part #e33GR. The spring seats on this axle are at 711-1/2" though, so they would have to be…
The slipper spring hook of a slipper spring like part #e67SR attaches to the equalizer and the eye of the spring attaches to the hangers of Tandem-Axle trailer hanger kit part #APT6SE. I have attached a diagram of how slipper springs are setup. I…

Thanks for the pictures! Based on the weight of your 2008 Keystone Cougar 5th Wheel, you will want the item #LG-1 landing gear set. You are going to want to measure to be sure this is the right size for you. The two things you will want to measure…
Thanks for the picture! I have something close to your 26" slipper springs. It is possible to switch to a two eye leaf spring or even go down to a four leaf spring with a higher capacity. If you wanted to switch it up to a two eye leaf spring I…
